[EVO 4G General] :
nope, don't see how they would possibly have any affect on tethering. the only battery issue ive encountered is dialer partial wake eating the battery like crazy, so i monitor the partial wake in spare parts and kill the dialer when necessary, or just use a different kernel. have wiped, flashed, not sent or received any texts and not made or received any call or used dialer at all yet still get the partial wake drain.
[EVO 4G General] Thomas1218:
I dont think the tethering issue is on Sprints end because I nandroided back to a backup of Myns 2.2 RLS5 and its back to working fine for tethering over 4G. Stayed with it a little bit to see if it would crap out again and it didnt but then I restored Cyanogen and it was having loading timeouts again:confused:
[EVO 4G General] :
i was tethering the other day on 4g with joeykrim's stock sense rom 5.1 and wireless tether for root users 2.0.6 and it was fine, and today briefly with cm7 nightly #7 with built in wifi tethering, although disconnection issues because im on the edge of coverage caused me to just revert to 3g.

Hey I tried the gps fix and I'm having trouble.

1. I restored a sense rom.

2- Launched the dialer and dialed ##GPSCLRX#

3 - Entered my MSL Number

4 - Rebooted

5- Restore my CM7 image

Now when I try to turn on gps and go into maps I don't get anything. Not even an icon at the top. Did I do it wrong?

Thanks in advance for any help.
[EVO 4G General] ronnyhawks:
i run evervolv which is way better in my opinion, and the gps fix works fine for me on the 2.6.35 kernel. after this rom was updated to the new 2.6.37 kernel, gps will not track. still finds position, but nav wont track
[EVO 4G General] sultan.of.swing:
Hate to say this but I have to agree.

Evervolv is alot smoother for me. CM will get there by the time there done though.
[EVO 4G General] mwielgosz:
I upgraded to the 1.90 pri recently and haven't looked back. No battery issues like on sense. I upgraded on the recommendation of a few other people from the forum. Of course, if you do upgrade, make sure you have full battery :)
[EVO 4G General] Saturn2K:
That's what I did and it worked for me. Some other people added in an extra step before restoring CM7, and seemed to have luck with it.

4.5- Let it boot back into the Sense rom and open Maps to let the GPS lock.

Then you can restore CM7, and things should be fine.
[EVO 4G General] :
umm, that's fine if you want to run evervolv, but from the description in that rom's op it looks like it's just a kanged/themed version of cm? i could be wrong. i would never run an aosp rom other than cm for the simple fact that they do all the work and write all the real code, not just new fonts and themes. if you want a stable aosp rom with working gps and no 4g, why don't you just run cm6 until 7 is stable?
[EVO 4G General] :
i think cm has already been there, yet is pushing past that kernel as true coders and trying to get the latest kernel working as best they can, rather than stopping at a stable build and tweaking it with fonts and such. made it kind of seem like evervolv is ahead of where cm is, and i highly doubt that.
[EVO 4G General] My1es:
You had to nandroid backup to a sense rom to get the latest pri then restore back correct?
[EVO 4G General] HiTekRawkus:
Sorry I guess I want clear...i used my phone as a hot spot to stream netflix to a laptop using 4g
[EVO 4G General] halorin:
I'm pretty sure Evervolv is based off of stock aosp. It came out before cm7 nightlies.
[EVO 4G General] fldash:
Download GPS Tools from the market. Run it once and see if it starts up the GPS. I had this EXACT problem on my wifes phone and using GPS Tools fixed it.
[EVO 4G General] r0cky0790:
I hope more people can confirm this because I had wicked battery loss upgrading my pri to 1.90. But like someone said earlier I don't think there would be any extra benifits upgrading.

+1

My battery life used to be great, running nightly 4, savaged zen BFS 0.0.9 (i think), and pri 1.77

When I updated my pri to 1.90, my battery life went all to hell. On nightly 7 now and went back to pri 1.77 and it seems to be much better again. I'll try it out some more and post if it gets worse again.
[EVO 4G General] matt2053:
Just because it came out before the CM7 nightlies doesn't mean anything. CM7 existed for a long time before there were any nightly builds, and that code was available for all to see/use.

Evervolv does some of it's own stuff, but for most of the high-level coding they most certainly use CM's code, including the Kernel CM developed.

Note: I am NOT saying there is anything wrong with this. CM is open-source and others are free to use it however they want as long as they give credit to CM, which Evervolv does.

But to my knowledge, there are only two groups doing serious Android coding for the HTC Evo: HTC and CM. Everything else is either a derivation of those, or a port from another device. (I might be wrong about that, and if I am please feel free to correct me!)

EDIT: This is not meant to disparage Evervolv or any other ROM in any way whatsoever and I hope it didn't come off that way. There are many, many developers who do many, many awesome things with ROMs, and it's much hard work and requires way more skill than I have.
[EVO 4G General] jethrt:
No nightly last night?
[EVO 4G General] matt2053:
Nope.

But the code didn't change. So there wouldn't be any point to building it again.
[EVO 4G General] dirkyd3rk:
Wow thanks for all the info on upgrading the pri I guess I will stick with the 1.77 for sure it seems to give me about 3 or 4 more hours on myn so I hope it does that same for cm.
[EVO 4G General] travis.rudd:
I did the GPS fix and it worked, my question is do u have to do the fix every time u flash a new nightly? Or just once on any cm7 and ur good to go?

I installed the nightlies yesterday but then i could no longer make calls, text. My 3g was not working and i had zero bars. But on sense it works fine. Really ticked me off
[EVO 4G General] vulcZ:
I'm kind of screwed and looking for help lol :/ Been running CM7 RC1 for the last 2 weeks or so and honestly it's been THE best experience with my EVO/CM. No problems, everything running great. Last night I did Nand backup because I decided I wanted to try and load nightly no.7. Any who, I didn't read any instructions and assumed I could just flash it over RC1. I also decided to try something different this time and updated via ROM Manager. During the update process, I selected YES to GAPPS, and YES to wipe DATA + CACHE (NO to back current ROM), for some reason I only read "cache", because I wasn't meaning to wipe data also :P Anyway, it installed, I boot up, and it's a clean install obviously. So I cancelled the initial Google account setup, rebooted into recovery and restored. At this point I didn't know if my problem had already started because I didn't check my contacts/accout. So I boot back into recovery, flash Nightly 7, reboot, and everything APPEARS to be running good, except a lot of my contacts are different, and Gmail/Market/etc aren't working. I established that I'm not logged into my Google account, and I'm not able to through accounts and sync in settings. I restore again, RC1 restored, but the Google account problem is still there :( Everything in place except I'm not logged into Google so GAPPS don't work and most of my contacts are missing. I tried restoring, then installing GAPPS again, nothing.

TL;DR I no longer have access to my Google account on my phone so GAPPS aren't working and my contacts are missing, and can't figure out how to log back in. This happened after flashing Nightly 7. Yes, I did Nand backup beforehand; restoring isn't fixing this.

Help please lol :(

Has anyone had issues like this?
[EVO 4G General] buda81:
I had the same issue. Here's how I fixed it.

Redownloaded CM7 N7 Full and gapps-gb-20110120-signed

Full Wipe

flash rom

flash gapps

reboot

and setup should work

my gapps were a little out of date and it was causing me login issues, even though it worked with CM7-RC1.
[EVO 4G General] vulcZ:
Thanks for the help! :)

Yeah if I do a full wipe and load N7 and Gapps then I'm able to login without an issue. But the only problem with that is that I wasn't meaning to do a full wipe, I simply wanted to load N7 over RC1 so I don't have to load/configure everything again. What also has me weirded out is that this is the first time since I've had my phone rooted than restoring my Nand didn't fix the problem. It's weird, it restores everything EXCEPT the Google account, and I'm not able to login. Gmail and Market both close immediately as soon as I try to open up. There's a quick error message but it goes away immediately so I don't have a chance to read it :(
[EVO 4G General] buda81:
I also didn't want to redo my settings, but there wasn't anyway around it. I used Titanium back up to restore all my missing apps and just configured the system apps again.

[EVO 4G General] ipatella:
I don't know if this is what fixed it for me, but make sure when you're on your sense rom that gps is on before you clear it. Then after it's cleared open maps and get a lock. Then power off with the power button and don't pull the battery. That fixed it for me.

[EVO 4G General] twe90kid:
Have a question about CM7 ASOP vs Sense. I was originally a Sense Rom user. Then I got curious of CM7. One thing that was strange to me was, before flashing from Sense to CM7. I backup my data using Titanium Backup Pro. Then flashed CM7. Once CM7 flashed, I restores perfectly fine with Titanium Backup. After using CM7 for a week or two, I wanted to try another rom. I re-backed up my files uing Titanium Backup. Now when I flash to Sense, it doesn't restore the data for the applications, only the app itself. I thought it was my stuff that didn't get backuped properly. I went back and flashed CM7 to do a restore with Titanium Backup. Apparently all the apps restored + all the data. I don't know why it restores data and app perfectly fine on CM7 ASOP roms but not on Sense roms. I tried several Sense roms and non of them work. Seems like i can't flash back to sense anymore because I have some valuable data that I need restored. Can anyone help me? is this a ASOP issue or a Titanium Backup issue? Maybe a Titanium backup update caused some problems?

I emailed the dev of tb asking for a older apk and told him the issue, waiting for a reply...
[EVO 4G General] jstalford:
When CM7 came out, I heard people were making backups of apps for Froyo and saving separate bakups for gingerbread, b/c restoring between the two can cause issues. I never had an issue though, b/c I heard that and just downloaded all my apps again once I switched to CM7.

I don't necessarily know that it's the best idea the restore data between ROMs unless you really have to. Also, there is an issue with titanium on the newest nightlies. Just make sure that you have "unknown sources" checked in menu>settings>applications and then set you titanium to interactive where you have to restore each app individually.
[EVO 4G General] MrWicked1:
Restored data tons of times never a issue, never restored data for settings etc just certain apps k9 etc. And yeah unknown sources is checked first thing I do when I install a rom.
[EVO 4G General] r0cky0790:
Yeah, Ive heard switching between both aosp and sense roms without thoroughly wiping can cause problems. I also read that restoring data between to the two using titanium backup isnt a good idea as well. As for the problem at hand restoring data is a issue. When I restored my apps yesterday everything was ace. Until I realized, as I was playing soccer superstars, my game data didn't get restored. On there other hand most of my data got restored on some other apps I have. I don't know what the deal is.

[EVO 4G General] r0cky0790:
I'm using pro. When I noticed data or apps wasn't restoring I knew it was something with the nightly. I've had this issue before using a sense rom. So what I did was flash rc1. Once I rebooted I restored everything using titanium backup. Afterwards I flashed the nightly 7 so I could have wimax.

i think buildbot was paranoid that @cmsrc was watching it too closely and so buildbot was conducting a ddos attack on the twitter feed, explaining why we missed a nightly. cyanogen, toast, and shinzul are probably having an intervention with buildbot right now, accounting for the lack of commits.

Nothing happened to the twitter feed. There have not been any changes to the code in several days. Builds 6, 7, and 8 are identical.

Fyi just because there haven't been any commits doesn't mean they haven't been working on it. Code is changed all the time. Commit means they have tested and are happy with the changes. So either.they've been coding but don't quite have anything worth committing yet, or changes that need to be committed just haven't been reviewed yet, etc.

EDIT: I'm sorry it looks like I was wrong. There have been recent commits to the code that haven't been tweeted. You can see them all in github though.

EDIT2: Whoops, just took a closer look at github and it looks like I was right. There haven't been any commits to the gingerbread branch in several days. The commits I saw when I made my first edit were for CM6, apparently they released a CM 6.1.3.
